Dr. Andrew Quitmeyer is a hacker adventurer studying intersections between wild animals and computational devices. He left his job as a tenure track professor at the National University of Singapore to start his own Field Station Makerspace in Gamboa Panama: Digital Naturalism Laboratories (dinalab.net).Here he blends biological fieldwork and DIY digital crafting with a community of scientists, artists, designers, and engineers from around the world. He runs mobile workshops called “Hiking Hacks” where participants build interactive technology in outdoor, natural contexts. The Digital Naturalism Conference (dinacon.org) is his research’s largest event, pulling in over 100 participants annually from all fields to collaborate on finding new ways of interacting with nature.His research also inspired a silly spin-off international television series he starred in for Discovery Networks called “Hacking the Wild.” He taught experimental animal interaction classes as a PhD at Georgia Tech for 4 years, as a professor at NUS for 2 years, and has been teaching with Digital Naturalism Laboratories since 2019.
